Personal Development

Understanding people this way is like having x-ray vision!

This bestselling book marks a major advance in the psychology of personality. Suddenly, you can see what's going on inside people: you can see what motivates and matters to them and how to influence and communicate with them successfully. Finally, you have a simple, clear, true-to-life map of personality that gives you the key to understanding people and interacting with them successfully. The 5 Personality Patterns is a book that can change your life.

Many readers have discovered that this map of personality is even more helpful than the Enneagram and Myers-Briggs personality types.

"This is one of the most useful popular psychology books I have ever seen… It should become a classic."—Stephen M. Johnson, author of Character Styles and Characterological Transformation

Much of our human suffering is not necessary. It is created by old safety strategies that helped us survive our childhood traumas, but then got stuck in our bodies. Reinforced by the power of habit, they continue to shape our actions and personality even today. They have become an invisible prison. We live our lives trapped in that prison, repeating the same mistakes over and over again. To regain control of our lives, we must uncover the old safety strategies and patterns that still run our lives so that we can heal and transform them.
